Too many fanboys. It hurts the eyes.

There have been only a few individuals who have really impressed me of late and who don't reside in Korea already (as much as I love HuK, I don't think he deserves special treatment):

- DuckloadRa - the beast of the east. If you guys give him a shot, I'm pretty sure he could qualify on the first try.

- Empire.kas - I'm not just talking about the TL open here. I've watched this guy rip up every tournament he's been in.

- KiwiKaki - this guy knows how to put on a show and if you think TLO is the innovator of creative play wait till you see this guy.

- Naama is ridiculously good and if you were to base it on ladder ranking alone. You would want this guy.

Tyler, Dimaga, Qxc, Incontrol. Those are my 4 picks.

I couldn't agree with sending Huk over Tyler, especially given Tylers recent commentary on Huks stream (lol). It just shows that Tyler is miles ahead of Huk in terms of game understanding. As well as that, Huk is already in Korea. If he is good enough for code A he will get there eventually.

Dimaga is just a sick zerg. Enough said.

Qxc plays the aggressive Korean style but well. I haven't seen any Korean terrans play a super-harass based style as well as Qxc.

At first I thought of Incontrol as more of a personality than a player, but after seeing some of his PvZs (among other match ups) I think he is undoubtedly one of the leaders in the foreigner scene.

I like qxc, but if you send him over there he will get eaten alive right now. He needs a lot more practice. Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of the guy but if some of you are really going to throw Machine, qxc, Incontrol out there I think they'll go 0-2. I have respect for all 3, but to be honest I don't think those guys are anywhere near ready yet. I'm even hesitant on sending Kiwi because of his unorthodox playstyle. I see a lot of flaws in his game-play.

If you want to brighten the tournament you will invite:

- Ra
- kas
- Naama

With more thought, maybe Sjow rather than Kaki :/

GOM - I believe you want good players to be given these spots, but also players that have a large fanbase to further the advancement of the game itself. (By increasing viewers, making you more money!)
1. Huk - He is a great player who will give entertaining games to watch. He is a huge favorite, and is currently second on the Korean ladder.
2. KiwiKaki - Another very creative player who can produce wins.
3. Incontrol - He's been involved in the game for a long time and is good enough to progress.
4. Tyler - An obvious choice, but it may be difficult with him having a family back home.

Oh brother. IdrA and Jinro are already guaranteed in the S Tournament for next season. Facepalm, Tyler is married and has no intentions on going to Korea. Read Naz's post.

Aren't like Idra and Jinro already S class?

Anyway,I'd say HuK, Socke, or TLO.

qxc - Very intelligent terran whose micro is fun to watch.

DiMaga - I'm a WC3 fan so I always follow him, he's an outstanding and innovative zerg.

WhiteRa - One of the best of the beta has stayed at a high level. Doesn't seem like he's able to get to most lans.

KiwiKaki - One of North America's best deserves a shot in Korea.
